这座城市被覆盖在隐藏的秘密之下，变得不再一目了然。空间，所有的人事物，它们皆停留在原地，等待着人们去发现。在这样的情况下，我们都希望自己成为一名考古学家，凭借着无限的毅力和耐心，抽丝剥茧，直至抵达最深处的骨架。作为考古学家，我们会对挖掘出的材料进行分类，并将它们移动到全新的环境当中。作为考古学家，我们会将所有的发现绘制成地图，使其永远留存下来，随时为人所铭记。作为考古学家，我们会限制自己去使事物减少，而不去增加任何新的东西。作为考古学家，我们会回顾过去，以便更好地对待现在。改变也是一种发明，而发现亦是一种改变。

The city always ocults under its surfaces hidden secret, forgotten situations, opportunities that do not appear simple sight. Matters, objects, spaces, are there, latent waiting to be discovered. In these cases one would wish to be an archaeologist, with his infinite tenacity and patience, gradually stripping the architecture of layers and layers until it reaches its skeleton. As archaeologists we would classify the found materials to move them and thus re-position them in a completely new way. As archaeologists we would draw a new map of everything we have found to keep it ever present. Not to forget, to keep it always at hand. As archaeologists we would limit ourselves to subtract matter so as not to add a new one. As archaeologists we would look at the past to reinvent our present. Transforming is also inventing. Finding is also transforming.

BABYDOG广告公司将新址设在了格拉纳达历史城区中心的一座建筑的第五层，其前身是一栋老住宅。这是一个狭长的、有着明确分区的住宅。临街立面很窄，并通过狭小的庭院空间来满足通风的需要。住宅内只有位于立面处的房间适合居住。为了将其改造为办公空间，我们必须彻底改变建筑的结构。首先，要精确地将所有的隔墙拆除，并且保留承重墙的复杂框架。墙壁的砌砖肌理和岁月的磨痕皆被完整地展现出来。随后，我们还制作了一些切割元件和铸件，以便墙壁能够在既有结构上继续工作，同时实现预想中的连续性和连通性。拱形墙壁通过位于地下的斜拉结构实现了固定。

The advertising company BABYDOG decided to move to an old house located on the fourth floor of a building in the center of the historic center of the city of Granada. This was an elongated and compartmentalized dwelling, with a short façade to the street and delimited by a narrow courtyard and a tiny space for ventilation. Only the rooms located on the façade had enough conditions of habitability. The needs demanded by a program like this, an office, forced us to project a complete structuring of the property. The first thing to be tackled would be the punctual discarding of all the walls to discover that the elements analyzed were part of a complex structural framework of load-bearing walls. We first scratched the surfaces in order to recover the solid brick texture of the original wall with all the wounds suffered over time (passage of wiring, pieces of wood from old carpentry and tying elements). After that we made some cuts and castings that allowed the wall to continue working structurally while achieving the desired continuity and communication between spaces. The structural support was made with curved metal pieces tensed by cable-stayed in the lower floor.
